Thanks James and team,

if you could make available the findings before the upcoming weekend this would 
be very helpful with respect to the timely coordination within the SGs/C’s.

Best regards

Subject: [council] Motion for GNSO Consideration of the CCWG Accountability 
Third Draft Report

Colleagues - 

Attached and copied below, please find a Motion for consideration during our 
special session on 14 JAN to consider the Recommendations contained in the 
Third Draft CCWG-Accountability report.  The small sub team reviewing comments 
submitted by SGs and Cs met today, and finalization of the findings/comments 
contained in the motion will be completed between now and our meeting.

Please note that on todays call we also raised the possibility that a GNSO 
response might be more informal (e.g., letter) rather than a formal motion.  
This will also be part of our discussion on the 14th, but I wanted to have the 
motion submitted to the list in the event that we choose this approach.

Thanks—

J.
